Sweet Potato Chips

Jamie and I often have a version of these at Bar 163, and they're fantastic. They're also so, so easy to make, and people are always super impressed with them. I made them a couple of times for Harry and he was particularly keen: he decided I should sell them, and eventually made me my own advertisement:

That dedication right there? That's how good they are.

Ingredients:
- sweet potatoes
- olive oil
- salt and pepper

That's literally it. Peel your sweet potatoes and chop into long-ish strips so they're vaguely chip-shaped, then put them on a baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, give it all a good stir and bung it in the oven at 220°C for 30-40 minutes.

When they're crisped up nicely, sprinkle with more salt and pepper then put them in a bowl to make them look pretty. Then eat. ENJOY.

I also sprinkled mine with rosemary before putting in the oven. Because I'm fancy.
